# Groove Guru vs a consumer scan app

A collector app answers one question: what is this record worth? A shop needs the next five answers — what did I pay, where is it in the shop, what is it listed at, is it already sold online, and who was waiting for it.

Right the moment scanning stops being a hobby and becomes buying stock.
